The finance and accounting (F&A) function has witnessed significant traction and has undergone several paradigm shifts over the last few years. This results from various factors, such as the rise of disruptive technologies like generative AI, worldwide pressure of declining GDP growth, high inflation, increasing risk of cybersecurity attacks, and issues with financial data privacy. This led to an over 13% growth in F&A outsourcing from July 2022 to July 2023 and an over 7% growth in active clients during the same period. To address these enterprise challenges and changing outsourcing dynamics, service providers are introducing technology-enabled solutions, especially generative AI-enabled solutions and sustainability-focused offerings, and expanding to newer service areas.

Development operations (DevOps) is an organizational model that promotes collaboration between software developers and IT operations. The model allows for frequent deployment of systemic changes and includes a use for automation. DevOps is a natural extension of agile development into the deployment and operational phases of the systems life cycle. Just as agile development builds software in small, iterative build cycles, DevOps applies enhancements as small incremental changes committed daily, hourly, or even moment-by-moment into the production system.

The company touted recent enhancements to its solutions at its annual customer conference in Las Vegas last month.
